Question by heyyo:
I have bedbugs on the floor of my bedroom what do I do?
Not on my bed yet, i found some of them dead on the floor and inside the fur of stuffed animals. What should I do until the insect guy comes in two days?

If they are bed bugs, chances are they are already on the bed and on the floor. Just because you can’t see them on the mattress, doesn’t mean they’re not there. They live under and inside the mattress; hide out in the head and foot boards and typically crawl up and down drapery if your bed is close to it. If you are certain that they are only on the floor, I would suggest removing all lines from the bed and call a pest control company that will come out today instead of in two days.

get a bug bomb, and some raid
Are you sure they are bedbugs? there are lots of insects that will live in a house.
If you are, the dead ones you have found may be cast nymphal skins,
Have you found red droppings on the bedclothes or noticed bites on your limbs?
Bedbugs are a problem best left to professionals, they get into the smallest gaps and are difficult to kill.
You will probably be best off if you start by boil washing everything you have in that room prior to the pest controllers visit.
They may want you to dispose of the bed, as that is more than likely the major harbourage.
Then all cracks and crevices should be dusted with insecticide prior to a spray treatment of the floor areas etc.
Be patient. there is no quick fix for bedbugs.
